Narrative
The first partner spins to get a group of coins. They write a question that compares the amount they spun to a different group of coins that they make up.


Standard options: 
A. Tell and write time from analog and digital clocks to the nearest five minutes, using a.m. and p.m.
B. Solve word problems involving dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, using $ and ¢ symbols appropriately. Example: If you have 2 dimes and 3 pennies, how many cents do you have?


Thought: In this activity, students write word problems that compare coin amounts.
Answer: B

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant standards it aligns with.

options: Derive the formula for the sum of a finite geometric series (when the common ratio is not 1), and use the formula to solve problems. For example, calculate mortgage payments.

Choose and produce an equivalent form of an expression to reveal and explain properties of the quantity represented by the expression.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Expand each expression below as a product of two linear binomials and then multiply to write the product in standard form.
a.
$${(x-5)^2}$$
b.
$${(x+4)^2}$$
c.
$${(x-3)^2}$$
d.
$${(2x+1)^2}$$
e.
$${(3x-2)^2}$$
Describe any patterns you notice between the square of the linear binomial and the resulting quadratic trinomial.
Problem 2
Solve the quadratic equation and then sketch a graph of the parabola.
$${y=(x-4)^2}$$
Problem 3
What is the value of
$$c$$
in the equation below such that the quadratic equation is a perfect square trinomial?
$$y=x^2+12x+c$$
